The Patterns
The interior of the room is designed to be a disorienting and immersive experience for visitors. The walls are covered in a series of black-and-white as well as cyan-and-magenta geometric patterns that appear to shift and change as the viewer moves around the space. The patterns are created using a technique called trompe l'oeil, which uses optical illusions to create the illusion of three-dimensionality.
